Wayne’s djing debut was at London's
infamous Red Heart party in April 1996, performing alongside
Grace Jones and for a dancefloor of 3,000. His overnight
success saw him joining ranks with legendary djs working
London's non-stop nightlife. Warriors at Turnmills (home
of Trade) made him a resident, alongside Blu Peter and
Mrs. Wood. It provided a leap into the big league and
brought a huge underground following.
He
joined forces later that year with QX Magazine's Stewart
Who? in an experimental studio collaboration. The track
was called 'Twisted' and started as a satirical poke
at the '48 hour London club lifestyle. It quickly exploded
into one of the year's biggest underground anthems.
Its unforgettable opening line, 'Excuse me do you fuck
as well as you dance?' had djs from around the globe
dropping the accapella over everything. Major labels
battled over the track as clubber's and DJ's fought
for copies.
Danny
Tenaglia personally asked to remix the track, and in
1998 the re-release of 'Twisted' brought worldwide sales
of 150,000. The unexpected success led to the critically
acclaimed album 'Through the K-hole'. Heaven in London
asked Wayne to join their esteemed staff in April 1997,
and he has remained their main floor resident ever since.
Wayne
has gone on to play huge parties all over the world,
including Sydney Mardi Gras 2000, Sydney Mardi Gras
2001, White Party 2000, Berlin Love Parade 96/97/98,
World Pride 1999/2000, the Adventjah festivals in Australia,
Sydney’s infamous Harbour Party 2002 and Fire
Islands Independence Day Party along with the prestigious
Fire Island Party (pines 2001). He is booked for gigs
around the world until well into 2003 including Sydney
Gay Games, Viva Las Vegas and San Francisco’s
Folsom Street Fair.
His production work accelerated since 1998, starting
with a remix on Cher's 'Believe'. After the No. 1 hit,
he went on to remix Madonna, Kylie Minogue, Backstreet
Boys, Jimmy Somerville, Holly Johnson, Billie Ray Martin,
Whitney Houston, Mary Kiani, N-Trance, Lonnie Gordon,
Miquel Brown, Dana International, Love inc., Modern
Talking, The Gibson Brothers, Candi Staton, Shola Ama,
Olive and N-tyce to name but a few.
He has developed a unique, hi-nrg euro sound for the
vocal dance mixes that he creates specifically for the
Heaven dancefloor. It has become his trademark sound
at circuit parties and raves around the world. He still
produces with Stewart Who? under their hard house guise
of 'Twisted' and the current single entitled 'Get your
hands off my gram' has just caused another fight amongst
the labels and looks like yet another success to add
to his infamous repertoire.
With
the re-release of ‘Twisted’ in 2003, expect
to hear a lot more……
